Population genetics: coalescence rate and demographic parameters inference

Abstract

We propose in this article a brief description of the work, over almost a decade, resulting from a collaboration between mathematicians and biologists from four different research laboratories, identifiable as the co-authors of the articles whose results are described here, and implicitely co-authors of this article, under the signature of Camille Noûs. This modeling work is part of population genetics, of which we give a definition below. It is therefore essentially at the interface between mathematical tools, more particularly probabilistic ones, and biological data, more specifically genetic ones.
